WATCH: Memphis Grizzlies defeat Cleveland Cavaliers in stunning upset

The Memphis Grizzlies duplicated the Lakers’ feat the previous night at the Cleveland Cavaliers home court and pulled off a huge upset on Monday.

Just a day after the Los Angeles Lakers blew out the NBA-leading Golden State Warriors, the Memphis Grizzlies also scalped the Eastern Conference leading Cleveland Cavaliers in a stunning upset that went down the wire.

Entering the game, the Grizzlies had four starters – Chris Andersen (shoulder), Matt Barnes (coach’s decision), Mike Conley (sore left foot), and Zach Randolph (coach’s decision) – all out for the matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

However, it was Tony Allen – known for his lock-down defense on opposing star players – fired from all cylinders with 26 points on 12-for-18 shooting, with four assists and five steals in 33 minutes on the floor.
